SUMMARY:Live|Arts|Lab.3: Local Development in Music in Johannesburg
DESCRIPTION:Tamizdat and Marie Fol will produce the third edition of Live|Arts|Lab (“L|A|L.3”) in cooperation with Music in Africa Foundation’s ACCES Conference\, IKS Cultural Consulting\, and the German Commission for UNESCO. Live|Arts|Lab is a series of workshops that gather artists and global culture industry and policy leaders\, and leverage their wisdom and experience to imagine initiatives that encourage fairness across the global cultural ecosystem. Like each L|A|L\, the third edition will focus on one of the live performing arts\, in this case live music. And like each L|A|L\, the third edition will contemplate fairness through the frame of one of the principles outlined in the “Fair Culture Charter\,” in this case Principle #4: “local development.” \nL|A|L.3 will bring together 32 thought leaders from across the global cultural ecosystem to design initiatives that enrich the diversity of cultural expressions and enhance human creativity. Specifically\, we will be exploring methods for promoting local and long-term cultural development needs in cultural engagements between artists\, creatives\, cultural workers\, and public and private organisations\, in ways that… \n\n\nPromote capacity-building\, skills transfer\, infrastructure development\, support for young creatives\, and the flourishing of sustainable local markets\, \n\n\nEncourage large and multinational business to actively pursue innovative\, respectful and non-extractive exchanges and long-term collaborations\, and \n\n\nEncourage the public sector to establish public cultural policy that prioritises local cultural development\, and ensure that large-scale private enterprises responsibly promote local development. \n\n\nL|A|L.3 builds on the results of the first two labs\, at Music Week Poland in Warsaw which worked on fair market access in music\, and Under the Radar in New York City which worked on diversity of cultural expressions in theater—to synthesize knowledge\, ideas\, and plans across disparate disciplines and across the global cultural industry.
